Embraer and Hellenic Aerospace Industry (HAI) are expanding their strategic cooperation to support the C-390 Millennium in Greece, focusing on maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities for the multi-mission transport aircraft. The initiative aims to establish local industrial capacity to sustain current and future C-390 operators in the region, according to information released by the companies.
The partnership foresees HAI developing in-country MRO services for key C-390 systems and components, positioning the Greek aerospace firm as a regional support hub. This includes technical capability development, training, and potential upgrades to HAI facilities to handle the aircraft’s specific requirements.
The deepened cooperation builds on earlier agreements between Embraer and HAI and aligns with broader efforts by C-390 customers to secure long-term lifecycle support close to their home bases. As orders for the C-390 increase in Europe and beyond, Embraer has been pursuing localized support arrangements with national aerospace industries, and the expanded role for HAI fits into that wider support network for the type.
